Dude, Where's My Ranch?

Random Ranting: Can someone explain what Fox was thinking when Scully
pitched the Pitts? Also, why does every episode of Boston Public have to be
a "very special episode"

Gropius Bauhaus Village: One of the best art movements of the 20th century,
information on it can be found at
http://www.artcyclopedia.com/history/bauhaus.html.
Klee and Kandinsky are probably the most famous artists of the movement,
but I am also a big fan of Moholy-Nagy's photographs.

Loved the Toblerone in the mini bar. What do those things normally cost? 4
or 5 dollars usually?

Review: First off, Jonathan Taylor Thomas played a much better love
interest than the ultra-earth-jerk played by Joshua Jackson. Also, was it
just me, or were the Simpsons celebrating the end of Passover by mentioning
two of the pretty common culinary staples of the reflection time (whitefish
and matzo balls)? I have to admit that I did laugh out loud at the scene of
Maggie dancing to B. Spears. The only problem I had with this episode is
why does lisa seem to be the only dynamic character on the show? She has
definitely had her share of life changes for an eight year old. Maybe it is
because she is only interesting if she is constantly changing? Either way,
it was a good episode and one that will probably even hold up well in
syndication. Grade: B+

What was Lisa's crush in 2F04? (btw, that's cabf_1_4...)

There's also a previous episode reference here; the fictitious movie
titles "Dude, Where's My Pepsi?" and "Dude, Where's My Virginity?" have
appeared (I believe in both cases on the marquee at the Springfield
Googolplex).

I found it to be a continuity error -- OFF went to the dude ranch
precisely because it didn't have radios!

Yes, I know -- a wizard did it. And I hope that wizard got fired for it.

Maybe it was a cassette player?

I found the scene to be a funny takeoff on Britney Slut, but was also
somewhat disturbed by it, since I immediately thought of the continuity
error, as well as it requiring Marge to be somewhat out of character. I
don't think she'd want Maggie listening to such crap -- remember that she
didn't want Lisa getting her ears pierced.

Okay, here's what may be a stupid question. In the radio promos for
this week's episode, when Homer says "Hey you city slickers in your
fur coats and pointy hats..." he follows it up with "go back to
Scarsdale!" My wife and I both took clear note of it because I grew up
in Scarsdale, NY. In the episode as broadcast, he says "go back to
Pittsburgh." Any ideas why it changed? Or would they do different
radio ads in different markets?

I could swear it had a visible tuning section, and (more importantly) a
whip antenna. I'll defer to somebody who taped the episode, however.

Also, in the TV previews, when Homer says the fur coats and pointy
hats line and Marge says "Homer, those are deer", he says "What-EVER!"
in that tone that most teens would use. But in the actual episode he
says "But I still hate them" instead. Why change that?

Perhaps it has CD players, but doesn't get radio signals.

That doesn't mean it worked. Alternatively, maybe Maggie sneaked the radio
in (I wouldn't put it past her), or they DID get radio signals, but not from
Springfield stations.
